Résumé
Portal vein embolization (PVE) prior to hepatic resection reduces the risk of hepatic insufficiency in the postoperative period by redistributing blood from the embolized unhealthy liver to the healthy liver, termed the functional liver remnant (FLR). A retrospective analysis of liver volumes after embolization in a single institution was performed to identify change in volume of the FLR and determine factors affecting this change. Between 2013 and 2015, 21 patients undergoing PVE followed by hepatic resection for varied indications (colorectal metastases, hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, etc.) were included in this study. Majority of the patients ( PVE is effective in inducing significant hypertrophy of the future FLR, prior to hepatic resection in our institution.
